BGS 20, Reaction to barley yellow mosaic virus 2 (BaYMV), Rym2
Stock number: BGS 20
Locus name: Reaction to barley yellow mosaic virus 2 (BaYMV)
Locus symbol: Rym2
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
Resistance to BaYMV 2 = Ym2 (4).
Inheritance:
Monofactorial incomplete dominant (4).
Located in chromosome 7HL (4); Rym2.b is approximately 31.4 cM distal from the nud1 (naked caryopsis 1) locus (4).
Description:
Plants with Rym2.b allele have much less yellowing and stunting than susceptible plants when grown in fields that are infested with BaYMV (2). Also, Mihori Hadaka 3 is resistant to BaYMV, BaYMV-2, and BaMMV in Germany (1, 2).

Mutational events:
Rym2.b in Mihori Hadaka 3 (PI 467403) (4).
Mutant used for description and seed stocks:
Rym2.b in Mihori Hadaka 3 (OUJ373, PI 467403, GSHO 984).
